quick question about moltenboulder

in Pvp, i understand an attack will put someone into hit recov. animation if the attack takes of a certain amount of their life (1 twelfth i think). Does anyone know if molten boulder causes the repeated knockback regardless of dmg to another player? Its just that if it does id like to experiment with it as a means of anti-telestomping, kind of like the barb's leap skill :tongue:

The boulder will continue to bump them until interrupted or blocked I believe. I've never tested it as a means of stopping desync hammers or that means but it'd be worth a try That'd deffinitely be worth investigating, I'd like to know
You'd deffinitely need some good FCR though, like at least 70% or 100% to be effective, since the boulder's already slow enough as it is you'll need your casting time after teleport to be almost insta-cast. = )

moulten boulder is so slow you could cast, then teleport from blood moor to cold plains and back again before its finished rolling to its fiery death.

boulder has 2sec delay

If you're right on top of someone (i.e. nl tele them) then MB should hit them straight away, as soon as it's cast.

MB can be blocked >.>

does it still KB if it's been blocked?

 

[Verashiden]

No, but they will go into block animation.

Your also assuming that you hit them strait on, which in the heat of a duel is unlikely. If it doesnt hit some puddle or rock on its way to the opposistion...who just happens to be standing still for you...then it will most likely knock them to the left or right of it.

Example; find a summoner type monster who loves to get his critters stuck in a doorway. Throw a boulder towards the middle of the doorway...why don't they all go to the back of the wall?

True, but when facing multiple enemies it'd be better to Fissure and walk than MB.
